Horse Health Tip
The Complete Picture of Complete Feeds
Complete feeds are popular because they make feeding simple for the horse owner. However, horseowner convenience doesn't always match up with good horse health practices. Many horseowners are unaware that feeding cereal grains and high starch concentrates can overload the ability of a horse's small intestine to digest and absorb carbohydrates. As a result, the excess starch makes its way to the hindgut, where acidosis can occur, which can lead to colic. Grains and sweet feeds also have high levels of Omega-6 fatty acids, which are pro-inflammatory when not fed with the proper ratio to Omega-3 fatty acids, and may decrease the intestine's ability to absorb nutrients.
For healthy equine digestion:
1. Feed a high-quality hay or pasture diet.
2. Avoid feeds with a high ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fatty acids.
3. Avoid feeding high amounts of grain or sweet feeds.
4. To maximize nutrient utilization, supplement with Platinum Performance® Equine (rich in Omega-3's, Antioxidants, Vitamins, Minerals and other intestinal protectants).
